#2 E.G. MSN > NBC: NORTH KOREA IN "PROVOCATION PAUSE" | NORTH KOREA MOVES MISSLES AWAY FROM COAST.

IMO CHINA = NOKOR IS MORE INTERESTED IN SETTLING BORDER + ACCESS ISSUES THAN TRADE - iff the
Khurshid visit to Beijing + reciprocal ends wid no results as per borders + trade, many Perts believe China = NOKOR will resume its previous bellicosities e.g. send PLA troops back into Ladakh, or else initiate new border incidents.

Again, China wants Japan to leave the US security umbrella + come under its own, + desires to keep Russia out AMAP ALAP of any regional mil conflict. TAKEN COLLECTIVELY, IMO THIS INDICS OR INFERS THAT CHINA PREFERS TO WAGE A WHOLLY OR MOSTLY CONVENTIONAL MIL CONFLICT, OR AT WORSE A HIGHLY-CONTROLLED LIMITED NUCWAR [TacNukes only? Mixed = mostly TacNuke, some ICBM?].

* DEFENCE.PK/FORUMS > TAIWAN WILL DEPLOY THREE BATTERIES OF "PATRIOT" AIR DEFENSE SYSTEM [ADS-BMD] IN SOUTHERN PART OF COUNTRY.

IMO Taiwan is trying hard NOT to say it knows its one fo the first targets for the Motherly PLA Airborne + SPECOPS, where any sufferance of any massive or prohibitive PLA combat casualties to take Taiwan is NOT a major = important factor as far as Beijing is concerned.

VERSUS

* DEFENCE.PK/FORUMS > FORGET LADAKH: FIRST SETTLE DOMESTIC INTERNAL ARMY, POLITICAL SPLIT | EX-DEFENSE MINISTER MULAYAM SINGH SAYS CHINA IS OUR [India's] BIGGEST ENEMY, CALLS UPA GOVT. INCOMPETENT + A "GOOD-FOR-NOTHING".

Oh my.

* BHARAT RAKSHAK > [Business Insider] THE PARTY IS OVER, THE US IS JUST ONE RECESSION AWAY FROM JAPAN-STYLE DOOM.

* SAME > CENTRE MUST GIVE EXACT GROUND POSITION [of withdrawn Indian Troops] IN LADAKH: OMAR ABDULLAH [J&K Chief].

Where did India's Troops withdraw to, versus where did China's troops withdraw to.

* BIG NEWS NETWORK > SOUTH KOREA: CLOSE US ALLY + DEFENSE WELFARE QUEEN.

Just another Artic illustrating that it costs the Debt/Sequester-ridden Bammer USA too much $$$ to defend its Allies in East Asia???

---------------

OTOH, China may NOT have to wage major war or demand the US payoff its Debt Payable, when it could as an option...

* INDEPENDENT.UK [old] > SCIENTISTS CLAIM "APPALLING IRRESPONSIBILITY", SENIOR SCIENTISTS ATTACK CHINESE RESEARCHERS FOR CRETING NEW STRAIN OF HUMAN INFLUENZA VIRUS IN A VETERINARY LABORATORY. EXPERTS WARN OF THE DANGER THAT VIRAL STRAINS CREATED BY MIXING "BIRD FLU" VIRUS WID HUMAN INFLUENZA COULD ESCAPE FROM THE LABORATORY AND CAUSE A GLOBAL PANDEMIC THAT WILL KILL MILYUHNS OF PEOPLE.

Gaaawd, a long Title.

Lest we fergit, China + Russia + Iran - MOST RECENTLY CHINA - have accused the US of waging or initiating unilateral, unjustified deadly BioWar = BioTerrorism agz their countries + populations, ala Bird/Avian Flu, Sars, etc. as part of a wily dastardly US Geopol + Econ Agenda.

TIT-FOR-TAT, PCORRECT-DENIABLE OOTW/MOOTW AGZ THE US???
